I am holding the last few precious copies of my book on China. Contact me at arhicks56@hotmail.com and I can send you one before they become a rare out of print item.

The book has sold steadily so it would be sad if it dies and is not reprinted. I really must do some revisions, adding in the newly discovered images that are in the post below this one, and make sure that the story continues to be told.

Copies are also available in the US from Quaker Books at Pendle Hill, in Hong Kong and from Earnshaw Books in Shanghai.

The world was even more tumultuous then than it is now but somehow I cannot imagine today the principled stand and example that was set by the protagonists of my book. Have we since then become more self-obsessed and selfie-ish?

About Me

My last five years have been dedicated to producing a book called, "Jack Jones - A TRUE FRIEND TO CHINA" about the work of the Friends Ambulance Unit 'China Convoy'. Jack wrote about their work during the nineteen forties distributing medical supplies and doing medical relief work until the communist regime called a halt in 1951. Jack, author of the novel, "A Woman of Bangkok", was a fine writer and evokes the era superbly in his contemporary articles that I have edited for this new book. It's been produced by Earnshaw Books in Shanghai as a large format book of 400 pages and 500 photos. Ask me how to buy it on arhicks56@hotmail.com.
